UK, Switzerland, France Create Corruption Enforcement Task Force
The U.K., Switzerland and France last week launched a new task force that they said will “strengthen our collective effort” to tackle bribery- and corruption-related crimes. The three countries’ International Anti-Corruption Prosecutorial Taskforce will allow them to regularly share information on enforcement work and propose coordinating on cases, they said. The task force was announced more than a month after the Trump administration unveiled plans to roll back enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (see 2502100055 and 2502120051).
